- Description
- This Izangoma and his wife were both dressed in scarlet, with skirts lavishly sewn with beads and many bead and "lucky seed" necklaces and bangles and leggings. Bead bands and strands on the head. The learner-izangomaare distinguished by a string of white beads round their heads.The Izangoma were supposed to be finding and throwing a "spirit" out of someone who had ben bewitched. At the end of the recording, one member of the audience remarked:- "There is no tokolosh (imp) here." Much laughter. The words were partly in Zulu, although the performers were actually Sotho.
